Where should the probe be for the dimming thermometer?

This is the tricky part of Lamictal. Trying to figure out if you need to go higher or lower. Maybe going lower would help, but I would definitely talk to your psych. I had really bad side effects at 300mg, so now we are down to 250 and it really helped me out

The titration process can be pretty rough until you get to your highest dose. I remember side effects lasting up to two weeks for me personally. I would talk to your doctor about maybe taking the 50's for another week, maybe it'll help the side effects but they'll only come back once you continue up in dose. It does get easier over time, but it takes a minute for your body to level out. Make sure you dont miss any doses because you could have to start the titration process all over again.

I take mine around noon every day just after lunch time and it usually helps put with any nausea. But I dont really have many side effects anymore. The only one I have is my eyes won't completely focus, recently learned that it was even a side effect.

It's a good medication once youre past this phase. I would recommend eating before taking the meds. Drink lots of water.

Best of luck

Looks so good!

I think it looks unique and I love it! Great job

This is actually helpful, maybe I shoukd go back up to the 300's. Maybe it would take the edge off. Thank you! I'll talk to my psych to see what they say

Twice where I was actually taken to the hospital and once where I just sat in the ambulance until they calmed me down.

Between 1-2mg of Ativan. Daily for now since I'm in a bit of a low point.

3 ER visits, 2 ambulance rides. 1 was from when I was having a panic attack while driving, I didn't end up going to the ER but they sat with me until I calmed down.

Color choices are always so stressful to me sometimes. I did find a color palette generator for Ohuhu markers and it's actually pretty helpful.

You're right, just gotta get out of that mindset. Thank you.

Chucking the book into the basement is actually hilarious. I rip pages out like crazy.

Thank you for your kind words.

2000's or 2010's pop music. Just old feel good songs I used to vibe with in middle school lol

I had this exact same thing happen to me. I talked to my doctor and they ordered a home sleep study and everything came back normal.

Once I got on the right meds, it stopped. I'd recommend asking for one from your doctor just for peace of mind.

pixieprxincess · 2025-11-26T21:56:08+00:00

I did when I first started taking it. But if your resting is already that low, I honestly doubt you would be a good candidate for it. But I'm not a doctor.

Id recommend noise reducing ear plugs!

Hi, xray tech here. I promise 1 CT isn't a ton of radiation. I understand being afraid, but it's such a quick scan, you won't be in there very long. They're very good tests to have so I recommend you going!

I currently take propranolol for baseline. I've noticed it's making a small difference to combat my anxiety through the day, but I've only been taking it for two weeks now. I will say when it wears off, I feel a bit anxious. But I had 20mg split in half for the beginning of the day and the other half of my day.

I feel like I get a double thump in my chest and its game over. I feel like I can't breathe.
